View this post on Hive: Back in the teaching saddle again (and it ain't so bad!)


I've moved to Hive, along with most other people, following Justin Sun's takeover of Steem in the Spring of 2020. I believe hive is a lot more decentralised than Steem!

Sort:  

Thanks for the support, I'm also a teacher and I know how it feels having to teach for hours. Most especially when the receiver are kids, an adult is still better though they give attitude but couldn't be compared to kids wailing, lol. Teaching is cool because one will never stop learning.

Interesting to hear you're a teacher, a great profession, just a shame about the system, at least here in the UK.

Well they do say teaching is the best way to learn, something I agree with!

The only problem is burn out: 30% teachers here in the UK quit after just 5 years. Only 50% make it past 10 years.

Here in Nigeria majority quite teaching profession and those that are doing it, are complaining bitterly because no money in teaching. Unless one gets lecturing work which is advanced.

Then again, maybe not, I don’t want to risk getting into a relationship or anything stupid like that, it could end up ruining the peace of the empty streets I now get to enjoy when my train gets in after midnight.

That would probably not be the only kind of peace you might lose. Now you have complete mastery of every aspect of running your household.8

Yes, I like it that way, bit set in my ways, and my habits!

I think there is an age range in which most people are most likely to want to get into relationships. To me, it looks something like 18-40. In their teens, most people don't have steady girlfriends or boyfriends. In their forties, most people become have 1) gained their share of negative experiences (a divorce or two, break-ups) making them wary of jumping into relationships, particularly living together, very easily, or 2) have always preferred to live single or have discovered that by having relationships.

If the scandanavian crime dramas that we get over here in the UK are anything to go by then being single and miserable at 50 is the norm!

hahahaha dude, living on the edge with the galls there, who knows ;)

Well education has turned more and more into not just presenting facts, but more and more giving life lessons and handles for kids to develop their own opinion

if you ask me, your experience comes in perfect in there! but that amount of trainride? damn thats gotta be worth it in the end ej..pfff

I think I'm in the right place teaching teachers for sure.

ATM it's only once a fortnight, and the trains are quiet so I can get a table to type at, so it's much the same as working in a office.

then atleast its doable...yeah and when a train gets turned into an office, it aint all that bad I find!

As a relatively new follower, it syarts to makes sense your background and the thoughtfilled comments and engagement you have. I wonder how much you try to apply in the learning of the ecosystem! Thanks for sharing!
